Razer has released a new lineup in their Blackwidow keyboard series. Today, they introduced the Blackwidow X series, a new line of keyboards for the more budget focused consumers out there.The new line of keyboards is a pared down minimalist version of the original Razer BlackWidow by removing the protective top cover and exposing the military-grade metal top plate construction that is found inside all current Razer BlackWidow keyboards. The original Razer BlackWidow with the inner metal chassis and additional protective top cover will continue to be sold as a premium model to the Razer BlackWidow X.
The stripped-down, minimalistic design of the Razer BlackWidow X line allows Razer to establish a new, lower price point for premium mechanical keyboards without compromising any of the core features for which the Razer BlackWidow is renowned.
The Razer BlackWidow X series includes models Powered by Razer Chroma™ technology, which unlocks customizable lighting on each key, with 16.8 million colors and a variety of lighting effects. Customized profiles can be created on the Razer Synapse software and shared with millions of other users via the Razer Chroma Workshop. In-game Chroma lighting effects are also integrated into popular game titles, including "Call of Duty®: Black Ops III", "Overwatch", "Blade and Soul" and more.
Razer is also outfitting Razer BlackWidow X models in non-Chroma configurations. The Razer BlackWidow X Ultimate, at $99.99, with dynamic lighting effects, provides gamers a premium mechanical keyboard at a value price point.
The Razer BlackWidow X keyboards feature the multi-award winning Razer™ Mechanical Switch, the world’s first key switch designed specifically for gaming. With an optimized set of actuation and reset points and increased durability of up to 80 million key strokes, Razer key switches possess almost double the lifespan of other switches on the market today.

If you would prefer, you can instead use Cherry MX Blue switches instead to save more money compared to those that use the Razer Mechanical Switches. The Razer BlackWidow X Tournament Edition starts at just $59.99 (USD).
Razer also made a new video for the Chroma version of the new line, which you can watch below.
